To the editor: This is in response to a recent letter in the Times-News titled “Dangers of meats.” I’m appreciative for her concern for her fellow readers’ health. No doubt she is a strict vegetarian and chows down on only fruits, nuts and vegetables.

I wonder, though, if she loves animals so much, why is she eating their food?

Words of Jesus

To the editor: In response to letter writer Joe Stanley Sr. (who was speaking to Mr. Clay Eddleman), I would like to inform him that there are no “words of Jesus Christ” anywhere in the Old Testament. In fact, there is considerable doubt by biblical scholars about many things attributed to Jesus in the New Testament.

Leviticus, to which he specifically referred, is believed to have been written by Moses between 1440-1400 B.C. That means more than a thousand years before Christ was born!

Get over it

To the editor: Really? Can’t you Bush bashers ever let it go? Your guy won. Get over it. I did.
